Care For The Environment
This is, and will remain, one of the guiding principles of our business. ‘If we can’t always do good, we can at least ensure we minimise the bad we do’.
We maximise the use of recycled materials, minimise waste and packaging, and even use some of the heat generated by our rotational moulding machines to warm the factory, thus saving electricity etc. Many of our products use a high percentage of recycled materials. For example our Composters are made from 100% recycled plastic and the plastic waste we produce is recycled into new compost bins. We guarantee these composters for an industry unique period of 12 years and know of numerous Composters still in active use after 25+ years!
We manufacture them at our Devon factory by the slow, gentle and relatively environmentally friendly and efficient process of rotational moulding (click here for article).
This is unusual as virtually all of our competitors sub contract manufacture to big plastics companies which make by injection or blow moulding. By making our own, we can always keep excellent control on quality. We are composting specialists who happen to make high quality composters out of recycled plastic, rather than a large plastics company which happens to offer composters as part of its product range.
